Mujeres cineastas engendran nuevos roles modelo en la producción audiovisual

Abstract

Recent media studies, through research data and audiovisual criticism, reveal fundamental characteristics in Eurocentric audiovisual productions – hegemonic worldwide – which instigate and root archaic (intersectional) gender stereotypes and representations that permeate diverse cultures within global societies. Audiovisual productions made by new generations of female filmmakers – directors, screenwriters, producers and actresses – have marked necessary and urgent transformations on female representations and role models for children and young women.
